In advancing his childhood dream as a travel photographer, he has organised more than seventy specialised photo trips for members and photo enthusiasts to various parts of the world under photosafari.

He has also organised more than nine public photography exhibitions. “Guerrilla Photography Exhibition” was his latest brainchild. Since its inception in 2012, Guerrilla Photography Exhibition has held its fifth exhibition to-date. The idea of a freestyle photography exhibition without curators have caught on and aspiring photographers have discovered on this platform.

In May 2015, Maxby responded to the call for help after the 7.8 Richter scale earthquake hit Nepal. He organised a self-help aid group called “Adopt-a-Village” to help villagers recovered from this natural calamity. Many well-wishers and friends have donated generously to this project. He has personally made a few trips to Laprak Village, (a village that was at the epicenter of the earthquake) to assess the situation and provide aid. Their project of helping Laprak Villagers recover from the Earthquake has been completed after two years of continuous effort. Their latest project being the construction and completion of a mini hydro-electric power plant for the entire village.

He has been selfless in committing his time to promote and improve photography standards for more than 80,000+ members of PhotoMalaysia.com and PhotoSafari.com.my.
